The El Dorado County Sheriff's Department is asking the public's help in identifying a "person of interest" sought in connection with several burglaries and attempted burglaries that have occurred over the past 45 days in the Rescue area, near Starbuck Road.

Homes typically have been entered during the daytime by forced entry or other means, according to a Sheriff's Department news release. Items stolen have included jewelry, money, cell phones and appliances.

Photos (above) from a residential surveillance system shows a man who appears to be white, in his 20s with short hair. In the photos, he is wearing a green "matrix" logo shirt, black pants and black shoes. Sheriff's officials said a white vehicle shown in one of the photos is not related to the subject.

The man is not being sought for the burglaries, but law enforcement officers would like to identify him, officials said.
